TO RECEIVE IS TO BELIEVE
Read John 15 : 7 If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you.
Abide means to believe and continue in God’s word. So many times people, even Christians will put all their effort into trying to figure out how to receive all the blessings God has for them.
When Jesus died at the cross, and said it is finished. What he was trying to get across to us was that he had taken care of our sins with his shed blood, he had taken care of our sickness and diseases by his stripes.
By going to the pit of hell as a guarantee to made available a new covenant so you could have life abundantly and access all heaven has to offer.
Problem is not what Jesus did but rather what we believe and abide in, or trust in. Even though Jesus has made everything available to us, if we don’t reach out and take it we will never have it.
The way to receive the things of God is through faith in the righteousness of God.
Mathew 6: 33 is telling us to seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.
2nd Corinthians 5: 7 says we walk by faith and not by sight. To many of us live by what we see and not by faith.
Hebrews 11:6 says… but without faith it is impossible to please God. God is a rewarder to those who seek him.
The problem is a lot of people (Christians included) keep trying to do and get things under their own strength, thinking with carnal minds, instead of trusting the Holy Spirit to lead us in the ways of the Lord.
God loves us and has made available all that heaven has to offer. As believers and children of God you have a right to receive it. We must go by what the word says in order to receive.
Romans 8: 14 says…. For many as are led by the spirit of God, they are the sons and daughters of God.
Romans 8: 17 and if children then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ Jesus. We are not throw away people, we are the Holy Spirit, anointed children of God and heirs to His kingdom.
Don’t be deceived by the devil and what people say, you are a Kings kid, stand up and act like it. Get up every day and say… I am the righteousness of God, and no weapon formed against me will prosper.
Be blessed in the Lord,
Brother Andy
